I read the two materials and i found many information about objectification theory and beauty myth.
I found many sentence that i agree and disagree ,but the two sentence that attract my attention are:
One phrase is in the lecture "The beauty myth "
"The beauty myth is always actually prescribing behaviour and not appearance"
The appearance is the first part when men are looking for a woman not their behaviour, and this is a wrong thing because we should not look the appearance of a person but their behaviour.I absolutely agree with this sentence because we should not look their appearance to someone but their behaviour, their feelings,how they look inside and not outside.We should baisd in inner beauty not outer beauty,because the look of person can be easily changed everyday. They think that outer beauty is everything for them, but they forget that the most important thing is inner beauty, is the soul that they have not the face that they have.
If we don't have an awesome look, it doesn't really matter just be good inside. People around you will appreciate you for what you are, and not for what you have or how you look.
Another passage that i found was about the SOQ(self-objectification questionnaire) which concluded that... "This difference score represent the relative emphasis given to these two dimensions: more positive scores indicte a greater emphasis on physical appearance (how the body look),whereas more negative scores indicate a greater emphasis on physical competence(how the body feels or what it can do)." I disagree with this phrase because people should not appreciate the way how their body look, but how their body feels. Every person should feel comfortable with their body to believe in their self and not what others says. In now days we see people that are more interested in the way how their body look and not how they feel.They are always inclined to have a beautiful appearance, to have a perfect body ,but they forget that what is more important is how they feel inside, they forget one thing, they are humans and not objects of beauty.
